Isaiah 60:8-14

English Standard Version

⁸Who are these that fly like a cloud,
    and ^(A)like doves to their windows?
⁹For ^(B)the coastlands shall hope for me,
    ^(C)the ships of Tarshish first,
^(D)to bring your children from afar,
    their silver and gold with them,
for the name of the Lord your God,
    and for the Holy One of Israel,
    because ^(E)he has made you beautiful.

¹⁰^(F)Foreigners shall build up your walls,
    and ^(G)their kings shall minister to you;
for in my wrath I struck you,
    but in my favor I have had mercy on you.
¹¹^(H)Your gates shall be open continually;
    day and night they shall not be shut,
^(I)that people may bring to you the wealth of the nations,
    with their kings led in procession.
¹²^(J)For the nation and kingdom
    that will not serve you shall perish;
    those nations shall be utterly laid waste.
¹³^(K)The glory of Lebanon shall come to you,
    the cypress, the plane, and ^(L)the pine,
to beautify the place of my sanctuary,
    and I will make the place of my feet glorious.
¹⁴^(M)The sons of those who afflicted you
    shall come bending low to you,
^(N)and all who despised you
    shall bow down at your feet;
^(O)they shall call you the City of the Lord,
    the Zion of the Holy One of Israel.
